Basic stuff; we leave a car & several m'cycles for 5+
months every year.
-Attach Battery Tender, maybe using cheap appliance
timer at receptacle, for a once a week 24 hr charge.
-Change oil before, or at least "after", upon return.
-pump up tires to 40 or so, which supposedly reduces
flat spotting.
-Add rec'd ounces of Stabil to gas to prevent deterioration.
-A good "wax" job and/or a dust cover, won't hurt.

As Wagner said, with a low amp/floating batt. charger,
it should start right up. Our car/m'cycles fire up every year,
after their "sleep".
